Royalty's show started at 8pm, but Tangning arrived backstage at 5pm. Although the battlefield this time was not overseas, Royalty was already one of the top brands in the country. At first, Tangning did not expect Lan Xi to give her such a big gift. But, after thinking about it, Lan Xi was after all a businesswoman, so everything she did was based on her own interests.
In reality, there were 15 models scheduled to take part in the show tonight. Tangning was the oldest...
26-years-old, in the eyes of the average person, was still young. But, in the modeling industry, in a few more years, Tangning would not even have the right to appear here.
Above all, Royalty was a big brand, so the models participating this time all had a big background. According to Tangning's current status, although she wasn't low, she wouldn't stand out amongst the 15 models.
So, the show director was full of doubt towards her for the opening show.
It seemed, every time Tangning worked with a model, there would always be times when they didn't trust her. Let alone tonight, amongst the models, there were even award-winning models.
"Tangning, if you have stage fright or are not in the right state, let me know immediately and I will arrange for a replacement," the show director said to Tangning who was getting dressed. If it wasn't for the fact that he had a good relationship with Lan Xi, he would not have considered Tangning. Although she was very popular recently... there were many models that were better than her.
"Hey... show director, Tangning has been in the industry for 8-9 years, you don't need to worry about stage fright," Long Jie reminded with a smile.
"I'm just worried you won't have enough confidence!"
Hearing this, Tangning gently lifted her chin. This action was undoubtedly a sign of confidence.
The show director did not say anything else. He was waiting to see how Tangning could present him with a level of professionalism that could satisfy him. Why would Lan Xi take a liking to a cold and aloof woman who was already so old?
The other models looked at Tangning like they were watching a good show. Some of them even leaned close to each other and whispered, "We all went through the auditions and worked hard to get in. Who would have thought, someone with a background is so different. She directly landed the opening show. I heard even A-grade models like Qin Lu had to go through an audition to get a chance to appear in this show. What is this Tangning?"
"You're not convinced? Why don't you compete with her on background... "
"You're already so old, you should be at home taking care of your children. Why are you here? Aren't you afraid of spraining your waist? "
As soon as Long Jie heard the discussions getting louder, she turned and glared at the people in front of her.
Tangning tugged on her arm, reminding her to control her emotions, "Why would you lower yourself to their level? Wouldn't you become like them? "
"Besides, they're not wrong. Even if you can refute them now, it's just verbal … They won't be convinced."
Long Jie scoffed but did not say a word. At this time, Yang Jing led a group of young women backstage. As soon as she saw Tangning, she was quite surprised. She had no idea that Lan Xi had planned this for her.
As the two's eyes met, complex emotions filled their eyes. However, Yang Jing did not say a word. She simply led the girls over to the show director and introduced them to him. This man had a good relationship with Lan Xi. As soon as he heard Yang Jing had brought people to watch, he allowed them to do as they pleased, as long as they didn't disturb the models.
"Tangning, it's time to get changed... we need to coordinate our movements."
Tangning stood up from the makeup mirror and brushed past Yang Jing. At this time, Yang Jing turned to Tangning and said, "Miss Tang, I'm sorry I rejected your resume. I'm sure you know how much pressure the modeling industry has. Not to mention, you are already 26-years-old."
Tangning gave a half-smile, without a hint of emotion, "It's fine, I know you have your own difficulties."
"Don't you feel tired carrying it like this? Tangning... you're actually quite a hypocrite. Do you dare say you're not angry? "Yang Jing crossed her arms; her words were direct and insulting.
"That's because anger can't change the fact that you are a despicable person. Why should I waste my energy?" After speaking, Tangning turned to leave, but Yang Jing grabbed onto her arm.
"You better not have any other ideas about joining Cheng Tian, it's impossible."
"Does President Lan know that you are in charge of Cheng Tian now?" Tangning smiled as she freed herself from Yang Jing's grip.
Yang Jing froze for a moment as she felt a chill down her spine. Tangning's words had directly pierced through Yang Jing's heart; she was currently testing Lan Xi's bottom line.
One of the models that followed Yang Jing into the backstage was actually quite fond of Tangning's style. Naturally, she was excited to see her idol. However, just as she reached out her hand to greet Tangning, Yang Jing sneered, "You are a model signed by Cheng Tian, why are you shaking hands with a model that isn't worth anything? Are you trying to lower yourself? "
Yang Jing's voice... because she did it on purpose, it was loud and piercing to the ears. Everyone nearby heard it.
Cheng Tian Entertainment's manager, Y, was humiliating Tangning backstage at Royalty's show.
The young girl weakly withdrew her hand. Tangning simply smiled and patted her on the shoulder, indicating it was fine.
Everyone was in the mood to watch a good show; they loved to see people that came out of nowhere get torn apart by the crowd...
However, after Tangning finished changing and returned to being a model, her aura and her nobility was something no one present could compare to. Even the show director that was previously unhappy with Tangning, looked at her and thought back to the naive woman from a moment ago. His eyes lit up in awe.
Royalty's main focus for this week was ink, so Tangning was wearing a slanted black and white chiffon dress. The irregular black and white print wrapped around her perfect body, and because of the black and white color, her sleeves were stretched out even longer...
Tangning's ability to perform was publicly acknowledged.
However, most people had only seen it on television or in print advertisements. So, seeing it in person, they still felt it was unbelievably beautiful...
Her figure was perfect!
Her expression... was even more perfect!
She had always been able to blend in with any clothes; they complemented each other and never stole the other's beauty.
Looking at everyone's awe, Tangning simply said calmly, "I am 26-years-old, I'm not as energetic as you guys... so, let's meet on the runway!"
The models that were whispering to each other immediately looked down at the dresses they were wearing. They were obviously from the same line, yet Tangning looked like a big brand, while they looked like cheap goods.
As for Tangning's words, they were quite skillful.
In other words, they were young, but the clothes they wore made them look like they were 36 years old...
The difference in appeal was more than 10 levels!
Inside the studio, Mo Ting was already waiting patiently. Hearing Long Jie complain about what happened backstage, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.
This Yang Jing... he needed to teach her a lesson.
